DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the present utility model will be briefly introduced below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and descriptions of the embodiments or the prior art. Obviously, the following description of the structure of the accompanying drawings is only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand this utility model, but does not constitute a limitation on this utility model.

[0019] Example:

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a high-content carbon monoxide conversion system, including a feed gas separator 1. The feed gas of the feed gas separator 1 comes from one or more mixed gases containing high concentrations of carbon monoxide, such as coal gas, calcium carbide furnace tail gas, ferroalloy tail gas, or methanol off-gas. The outlet of the feed gas separator 1 is connected to the inlet of the feed gas filter 2. The feed gas from the outlet of the feed gas filter 2 passes through a first gas-to-gas heat exchanger 7 and a feed gas electric heater 9 in sequence, and is then divided into two gas pipes. One gas pipe connects to the inlet of the first-stage conversion reactor 3, and the other gas pipe connects to the inlet of the second-stage conversion reactor 4 through a first volumetric flow control valve 13. Here, the first-stage conversion reactor 3 and the second-stage conversion reactor 4 are connected in parallel. Then, the gas flow rate entering the first-stage conversion reactor 3 and the second-stage conversion reactor 4 is controlled by the first volumetric flow control valve 13 to reasonably adjust the flow rate and extend the service life of the catalyst. The primary shift gas from the outlet of the primary shift reactor 3 is split into two gas pipes after passing through the first gas-to-gas heat exchanger 7. One gas pipe is connected to the inlet of the first gas-liquid condenser 5 via the second volumetric flow control valve 12, and the other gas pipe is connected to the inlet of the secondary shift reactor 4 via the second gas-to-gas heat exchanger 8. This allows the shift gas from the outlet of the primary shift reactor 3 to be cooled by the first gas-to-gas heat exchanger 7, and then regulated and distributed by the second volumetric flow control valve 12 to control the gas flow into the secondary shift reactor 4. This also realizes the series connection of the primary shift reactor 3 and the secondary shift reactor 4, forming a series-parallel connection. Then, the gas flow rate entering each shift reactor is controlled by the first volumetric flow control valve 13 and the second volumetric flow control valve 12, which allows for more reasonable distribution and extends the service life of the catalyst.

[0021] Based on the above, the secondary shift gas from the outlet of the secondary shift reactor 4 passes through the second gas-to-gas heat exchanger 8 and then connects to the inlet of the first gas-liquid condenser 5. The outlet of the first gas-liquid condenser 5 is connected to the inlet of the second gas-liquid condenser 6 to form the final shift product gas.

By filling the shift catalysts with different CuO contents, the reaction is expanded from a point to a surface, thereby avoiding the concentration of the catalyst at a certain point to cause heat concentration, and the upper ends of the outer walls of the first-stage shift reaction furnace 3 and the second-stage shift reaction furnace 4 corresponding to the different activity catalyst layers are each provided with a water vapor inlet to facilitate the control of the addition of water vapor in the first-stage shift reaction furnace 3 and the second-stage shift reaction furnace 4, control the reaction progress, thereby effectively controlling the heat release of the reaction, and further effectively controlling the hot spot temperature of the catalyst bed, avoiding the sintering of the catalyst at high temperature.

[0025] As a preferred embodiment in the present embodiment, it needs to be further explained that the third volume flow control valve 14, the fourth volume flow control valve 15 and the fifth volume flow control valve 16 are all connected to the water vapor main pipe through the first water vapor branch pipe, and the sixth volume flow control valve 17, the seventh volume flow control valve 18 and the eighth volume flow control valve 19 are all connected to the water vapor main pipe through the second water vapor branch pipe, and the water vapor main pipe is installed with a steam electric heater 10, and the second water vapor branch pipe is installed with a ninth volume flow control valve 11, which can better control the amount of water vapor entering the first-stage shift reaction furnace and the second-stage shift reaction furnace, thereby controlling the reaction progress, and further effectively controlling the heat release of the reaction.

[0026] As a preferred embodiment in the present embodiment, it needs to be further explained that the bottom of the raw gas separator 1, the raw gas filter 2, the first gas-liquid condenser 5 and the second gas-liquid condenser 6 are all provided with a condensate outlet to facilitate the discharge of the process condensate finally formed.
